Bishop Margaret Wanjiru has challenged Jubilee Party's Nairobi governor nominee Mike Sonko to honour a memorandum of understanding the two allegedly signed in the pre-nominations period. Ms Wanjiru disclosed that she had an agreement with Senator Sonko to deputise him in the event that she lost the April party nominations.
Even though she would not disclose more about the deal, there are indications that Wanjiru and Sonko had opened up their options to avert any negative eventualities of party nominations. Two days after her release from police custody following her arrest on allegations of electoral malpractices, Wanjiru visited the Jubilee Party headquarters to assess the progress of cases before the disputes tribunal.
"I have come here to see what is happening," she said. Despite losing in the primaries and having no case before the Jubilee tribunal, Wanjiru maintained that the primaries were mishandled and were not free and fair.
